Chapter 225 Haunted School
Chapter 225 Haunted School
Brother Li and I looked at each other, and in our eyes we both felt the affirmation from the bottom of our hearts.
They all concluded that this must be the entrance or connection to the next space.
Brother Li frowned, touched his chin, and observed the furnace carefully. He suddenly spat and cursed: "This thing is so damn difficult! If this is really Liang Junliang's ability, then he is too powerful, simply an existence against the sky! Even a high-level ability user can't escape from his palm. Think about it, who would be stupid enough to jump into such a dangerous place? This is nonsense!"
In fact, when I saw this furnace, I had already thought of a solution, which was not difficult for me.
I smiled and said to Brother Li, "No matter how powerful Liang Junliang is, if he meets me today, it's like he's hitting a steel plate. I'll kill him when I get out."
Brother Li spread his hands and said jokingly, "Brother, don't brag. Tell me how we can get through here first."
"It's actually very simple. I have ice powers. I'll just wrap myself in ice and jump in. They won't be able to melt me. You and Xiao Songjue can rest for a while in my space lounge. I'll pull you two out when I get to the next place."
Brother Li's eyes lit up and he immediately praised my skill.
Okay, no more nonsense. After I pulled Brother Li into my space lounge, I took out a second-order crystal core and swallowed it, first recovering my physical strength, and then used my ice energy to wrap my body with layer after layer of ice shell.
After I was wrapped into the shape of an egg with an ice shell half a meter thick, I held my breath, gritted my teeth, and rolled into the 2m square furnace pit!
The furnace pit was filled with orange liquid steel. The bright orange-red liquid steel could reach a temperature of more than 1500 degrees. Suddenly, I felt uneasy and wondered why I was so reckless. If the ice layer collapsed instantly, I would be turned into molten steel in an instant...
The outermost layer of ice quickly turned into water under the high temperature, and the water made a violent hissing sound under the high temperature. Unable to maintain the liquid state, it quickly separated into gaseous state and mixed with the surrounding air. I could only hear the sound of the ice breaking crackling in my ears, like an explosion.
Although this heart-wrenching feeling was short-lived, it was really terrifying. I was terrified and thought that the ice layer might have become thinner, so I quickly output energy to thicken my ice layer again and again, trying my best not to let my protective shell disappear.
Only about twenty seconds passed, and I felt that I had finally fallen to the bottom of the furnace. Like a chicken laying an egg, I fell hard through the bottom of the furnace and was born into another world.
Or rather, it was thrown into another dimension...
It felt like a thrilling adventure had finally come to an end, and after successfully escaping danger, it was as if I had been reborn.
When I got out of the cold ice, I could feel the changes in the surrounding environment. Under the dim sky, I stepped on the weed-covered land, as if I was in a strange and mysterious world. I looked up and saw a dilapidated school standing there. The cold feeling of the empty school seemed particularly desolate and lonely.
This desolate feeling reminded me of some horror novels I had heard before. My calves suddenly started to cramp and I felt extremely scared. No, I had to pull them out to accompany me!
Seeing Song Jue drinking the snow-capped coffee he ordered from Mixue Ice City and Lao Li with a comfortable expression in the space, I don’t care. I can’t risk my life alone while you two are so relaxed, so I pulled them out directly.
When the two of them stood beside me, they were also stunned. Song Jue couldn't even hold the snow-capped coffee steadily, and it fell directly to the ground...
This dilapidated school stands quietly in the corner of time. On the rusty iron gate are two tattered wooden plaques with the words "Virtue and talent, with lofty ambitions" written on them.
In the middle is the name of the school - Zhuoyuan Key High School.
My god, it's still a high school.
The school building seems to be quite large, with a main teaching building and a secondary teaching building, a huge playground, and what might be a cafeteria over there. Next to the cafeteria there is a tall building, which is probably a student dormitory.
This school seems to be a county-level high school. It looks like it covers an area of about 40,000 to 50,000 square meters.
Now that we are here, we must not leave. I pushed open the rusty door, and the paint on the door was peeling off, revealing a mottled background. We also carefully looked at the security room next to the door. It was pitch black. I shone a light in and found that there was no one inside. But the dark room was very creepy. Song Jue was the most timid boy, and he stuck to me tightly, fearing that some monster would jump out of the security room?
Walking into the campus, weeds are growing wildly in the cracks between bricks and stones. The plastic track on the playground has long been worn out, with crisscrossing cracks as if it has been abandoned for a long time.
On the walls of the teaching building, it felt like every brick wall was in disrepair, with a large amount of wall paint falling off, revealing the old internal mud and plaster. A lot of glass on the windows was broken, and I suddenly had a feeling that there seemed to be prying eyes lurking behind every window, looking at us.
In this environment, it is hard to tell whether it is morning or evening. There is no moon or sun in the sky. It is just covered with dark clouds, and the dark environment makes people feel suffocated.
Old Li suggested going to the front building - the teaching building - first.
Entering the lobby of the teaching building, I found that the lights in the corridor were dim and weak, flickering like a ghost fire, casting long shadows, making the already narrow space even more depressing.
I randomly picked a classroom and found that the tables and chairs inside were neatly arranged, covered with dust, recording the passage of time.
Suddenly we heard light footsteps coming from another classroom, and it seemed like someone was talking quietly. The three of us were stunned at the same time. Could it be that Chu Fangjun was here?
We immediately perked up and ran to the next classroom. To our shock, the next classroom was even quieter than the one we had just visited, and it didn't look like anyone had been there before.
I was wondering, did I really encounter a ghost?
Suddenly Song Jue began to shiver all over. He had a bad feeling and said tremblingly: "Huo, Huo, Brother Huo——"
If I didn't know he was a stutterer, I would have thought he was singing Huo Yuanjia. He scolded me for being so nervous when I stuttered when I was speaking properly.
"Oh! I know. This is that horror novel, the horror novel from school." Song Jue was still trembling as he spoke, but this time he didn't stutter too much.
Song Jue's words were like enlightenment, and Brother Li and I were stunned.
Since zombies appeared in the previous scene, could it be possible that ghosts would appear here? Could there really be ghosts? It was as if those ghosts were quietly observing every intruder who dared to break into this place!
Just when we were suspicious, we suddenly heard the sound of someone running in the corridor.
We quickly went to the corridor to see who was running in the corridor. As expected, there was no one, not even a shadow.
Could it be that the evil spirits in this school are playing tricks on us? Are they teasing us?
Suddenly Song Jue shouted: "There, there is someone!"
I covered his mouth and told him not to make a fuss. I was so scared that my heart was pounding. I told him not to be scared to death by him before he even saw the ghost.
Sure enough, we could vaguely see a dark shadow sitting on the last row of seats near the wall of the classroom where Song Jue pointed. At the same time, we heard her whispering and sobbing. We mustered up the courage to move closer in that direction, and gradually saw that there should be a female classmate sitting on that seat. She was talking and crying on the table with her head buried in her arms.
Because she was lying down with her face buried in her arms, we couldn't hear what she said.
I anticipated a terrifying scene. When we walked up to the girl, she would suddenly raise her head and make a hideous and terrifying face.
I suddenly closed my eyes and dared not look at this scene. The more I thought about it, the clearer the outline became in my mind. It must be a ghost.
But Brother Li, who is so fast, was following me. Such a big man is actually more afraid of ghosts than I am.
The two bad guys pushed me along from behind. I was so scared. I finally got close to the girl's table, and suddenly everything went quiet. The girl disappeared! All that was left was the cold air, my heartbeat, and the two cowards behind me.
There really is a ghost! The final conclusion is that this school is haunted!
